Bit of a surprise considering how strongly he denied it when interviewed on The Daily Show. However, there was a high-level officer in the talks who said Rumsfeld et. al wanted to raise the alert with flimsy justification

IIRC, Ridge’s assertion on the Daily Show was that he and his staff at the DHS didn’t use the “National Mood Ring” for political purposes. What he’s alleging now, and has said before, is that other people in the administration were doing these things.

took long enough but the truth’s finally coming out. the wingnuts will doubtless scream with fake indignation about a politically motivated witch hunt, etc. but this is clear grounds for a congressional investigation. if ridge’s assertions prove true….wow

Tom Ridge “appears” to be alleging? Don’t go out on a limb there, Mr. Secretary.

Who even cares? This is way too little and too late to be in any way meaningful. Of the bad things done by Bush 43, this would have to be, if true, like #1000 down on the list. Who even remembers who the hell Tom Ridge is anyway?
